Not really. Hollywood has propagated a lot of myths about corsets, partly because of incorrect application of them on Hollywood sets.
Call me crazy, but I feel morally justified in not watching a 15 minute video about women's underwear. But I will accept the idea that modern folks might not have understood the right way to wear corsets.
How does that work? What does it mean to use moral justification to avoid being informed on a topic.

I rest my case!
